Burglaries so far this year are trending down 16.7% compared to the same time period in 2022, according to the latest data available from the New York Police Department.

However, the burglary rate over the last 12 months is up when compared to the annual average over the last three years.

The city is averaging 296 burglaries a week over the last 12 months. In 2019, that number was 207 a week.

The risk is not the same neighborhood to neighborhood.

ABC7’s data team looked at the New York Police Department’s data by neighborhood from 2019 through February 18.
